Mounting the Backup Battery Unit
Mounting the Battery Unit for the First Time
Connect the Absolute Encoder Backup Battery Unit to the motor, then set up the absolute
encoder. Refer to Absolute Encoder Setup on page 10-6.
After the Absolute Encoder Backup Battery Unit is attached, it is recommended that the control
power supply be turned ON and OFF once a day to refresh the battery.
If you do not refresh the battery, battery errors may occur due to voltage delay in the battery.
Replacing the Battery Unit
If a battery warning occurs, the absolute encoder power supply must be replaced.
Replace the Battery Unit with the control power supply of the Servo Drive turned ON. If the
Battery Unit is replaced with the control power supply of the Servo Drive OFF, data held in the
encoder will be lost.
If the absolute encoder is cleared using the front panel or the absolute value is cleared using
communications, all error and multi-rotation data will be lost and the absolute encoder must be set
up again. Refer to Absolute Encoder Setup on page 10-6.
